LSTM conducted the first impact evaluation of the MNCH weeks in Nigeria covering 2010-2014. The evaluation involved a large household survey with 5,389 households (105% of planned sample) 320 clusters (41% urban and 59% rural), 5,139 children aged 0-23 months (54% Male, 46% Female); 2,531 children aged 24-59 months (52% Male, 48% Female) and 5,180 women of reproductive age (15-49 years)
Recommendations made have been used to improve the delivery of the MNCH weeks and resulted in a revision of the policy supporting the implementation and strengthening of primary health care in Nigeria.
